Can you help us identify this city in Iraq from an oblique aerial photograph taken by 55 Squadron @RoyalAirForce c.1930? Probably in the north of the country.
Aerial archaeology enthusiasts may be interested in following this project working in north-west Saudi Arabia #aerialarchaeology

We know it's been a while, but we have posted a new blog! Regarding declassified U2 #aerialphotographs of ME, spatially indexed by Emily Hammer and @jasonalikur (how great!), and the potential for archaeological research in Jordan apaame.org/2019/01/enter-u2-…

For the past 2 and half weeks our director @robertbewley has been running the @APAAME Aerial Archaeology in Jordan project, flying with the Royal Jordanian Air Force to identify and #document the condition of #endangered #archaeology across #Jordan. @ArcadiaFund
Please be aware that the APAAME team will be on fieldwork over the October - November period and we may not be able to fulfil any image requests over this time #aerialarchaeology #aerialphotography
El-Mutrab is the second of three courtyard buildings to be destroyed in this area. You can find our history of photography of el-Mutrab on our Flickr page: flickr.com/search/?user_id=3…
Another #Endangered #Archaeology site bulldozed: in Oct 2017, @APAAME photographed a well-known courtyard building at el-Mutrab in Jordan (flic.kr/p/ZP5QAT) when it was intact, as Google Earth shows. By March 2018, half of it had been removed & 2 trucks parked on it.
